    What's special

    Charming colonialRich hardwood floorsBrand new roofQuiet tree-lined streetThree spacious bedrooms
    Welcome to 167 Chapin Terrace! It is a charming colonial with great bones, being sold as-is. Nestled on a quiet, tree-lined street in the heart of Springfield's Liberty Heights neighborhood, this home offers the perfect blend of classic character and exciting potential. Whether you're a first-time buyer, a growing family, or a savvy investor, this is a rare opportunity to make a home truly your own. The main floor greets you with rich hardwood floors, a cozy fireplace in the living room, and a full kitchen featuring unique mosaic tile flooring you just don't see in modern homes. A beautiful wooden staircase with banister leads upstairs to three spacious bedrooms, each with its own charm, and a full bathroom. The home is flooded with natural light throughout, with plenty of windows perfectly positioned for stunning sunset views. Recent upgrades include a brand new roof. One of the biggest ticket items already taken care of for you. This home is more move-in ready than you might expect. The repairs needed are cosmetic and straightforward. One bedroom ceiling requires a simple drywall patch — caused by a previous tenant and completely unrelated to water or structural issues, just an easy handyman fix. Refresh the kitchen to your taste and you're set. No major structural work, no surprises. Just a solid, livable home waiting for someone to make it their own. Outside, enjoy a large fully-fenced backyard perfect for gardening, entertaining, or letting kids and pets roam freely. The front yard offers great curb appeal potential, and the driveway fits 2 cars with additional street parking out front. The unfinished basement with laundry hookups is a blank canvas. It could be a workshop, home gym, extra storage, you name it. Location highlights: - Steps from Van Horn Park, one of Springfield's most beloved green spaces with walking trails, a pond, and recreation facilities - Minutes from Baystate Medical Center - Quiet suburban streets with sidewalks — great for walking and biking - Easy highway access **For sale by owner.
